New Best!!!
My brake works.... I tested it on a highway entrance ramp the other day.. at 5000 
Pulled the tires on the street... kinda scary LOL. I had the front shocks on 3 and the rears on 4, I think at the track I am gonna put them all at 5 and try that first and go from there, maybe end up with the left rear on 4.. the 3 and 4 settign really brought the nose up alot, more then I think it needs to come up.
I don't have the iron block in the car, I ended up going aluminum... I figured saving 75 bs for 300 bucks seemed like a worth while venture.
I'll have some type of test results after tomorrow, we're taking the car to NED for camaro/firebird day.. I am planning on making 2 1.8 mile passes, then the first bracket run I maek, full tilt and get kicked out LOL.. I haven't gotten teh roll bar in yet.. but that's next on the list at this point. Hopefully I'll be able to match your motor times.... my converter is probably a little more geared towards motor, so that hopefully will help to, it flashes to 6200 on the dyno, and on the brake, I can bring it up to 5500... so we'll see, plus I still have the 4.10's in the car, another plus on motor.

Thanks.. I may try footbraking the car the 2nd pass.. .alot will depend on what the car does the first pass. Whatever works better will bw what I do the one full run I put on it. Maybe I'll put all the shocks on 4 and see what that gets me, maybe leave the right rear on 5 the first launch... whatever the guys reccommend si where I'll start it at... they've got alot more experience then I do.

Ended up running 11.066@123.... car wasn't leaving/transferring weight right, we played with the shocks every pass to see what we could get it to do... car ended up weighing 3620 with me in it, alot lighter then i thought it was gonna be, but that is neither here nor there. I'm gonna pull the rubber spring mounts out this week if I get the chance to drop the back in inch or so to try to help it transferr weight, see where that gets me, there's a rental @ lvd this weekend that I may try to go to , if a couple situations work themselves out righ
